We hung out on the boat
for the morning. Around noontime a lot of boats were coming to the
Thunderball Grotto to snorkel.
After lunch we headed over there ourselves. The same current we were experiencing at out anchorage was flowing through the Grotto making it hard to snorkel.
Linda gave up and deserted me for the dinghy and I did not last much longer. The last two times here we had no current to deal with. We gave up and went back to the boat.

We washed up and headed back into town to go to General Isles store. On our way we ran into Heather “Maewyn” and her sons Arleigh and Sam walking with Gary's Mom. Gary and his Dad were back on the boat. We all walk to General Isles, because we are told they have ice cream. Even the sign on their door says they have ice cream, but like most establishments in the Bahamas that display permanently attached “Open” signs, it is true sometimes, just not today.
We all walk back towards
the dinghy basin and stop at the “Pink” store. They score a pint
of ice cream and they sit down by the beach with their spoons and
enjoy it before it melts. Another night a strong winds and current.
No reason to hang around here any longer and we will leave in the
morning for Black Point which has good protection from the east winds
that are suppose to increase for the next few days.
